It was a day of surprises. Dganit, the manager of the Ben Shemen Day Center for developmentally delayed youth, didn’t exactly know what we were bringing, but she was looking forward to it. However, it was a huge shock to actually see it all at once.

The kitchen at the center had needed a new set of pots/pans.
They had never said anything to the parents about it. Yet, here it was, several thousand shekels’ worth of needed items.
Thanks to your gifts, we were able to bring this all to the center, and make life better for these youth and the center’s staff.

Herut Kindergarten is a special place for special kids…developmentally delayed. The teacher was very surprised when Israel Relief Aid showed up with a huge play set that goes against the wall. They don’t have the funding for play equipment like that. (This set had been donated by a toy store in Modiin who asked us to “place” it where it was most needed. What fun it was!)
